Heard today that the ALAEA has decided against incorporating bans on higher duties and bringing everyone back on the floor. Suppose to be imposed next Wednesday or Thursday. All the pissweak reps on OCS or higher duties probably realise it's not in their own short term interest.
Let's not pussy foot around guys. Either have the balls and go out on the grass or just take 3% with back pay and get back to your own pathetic lives. If you don't you'll be screwed.

Hey Cone head . Put the guys name or initials on the forum or on GLSOL. Make sure that every one knows who he is.
If not, the toilet walls at work make a good canvas.
By the way join the ALAEA. Youu can't change it from the outside.

The ALAEA have notified the IRC today that they are escalating industrial action. The timing to be around Thursday next week if the Company refuse to begin talking.

I presume It will be "no higher duties" ban as rumoured. QF will presumably not agree to talks as they have already warned people on various secondments that they will be returning to their crews to resume their normal job description.

Check out ALAEA website forum under EBA 7 thread. You will need to register to gain access to the employer specific forums.

From another forum over a week ago Bexley suggested that the bans would not be escalated, But then he is on the inside.

Although we haven't heard from the asn the Fed Exec have voted to up the bans in 2 weeks to no higher duties. Was that part of the plan Bex?

Why not join so you can voice your opinion and take part in the overthrow of the current Wallys. There is a team ready to lead for the members and without management influence. You can vote for them in 12 months time but you can't if you aren't a member.

Would you like to see SF have his little Empire taken away. Are you happy with TH and his mates selling agreements that we don't really want. I'm not so I remain a member to end the rot. I hope you join for the same reasons.

I can understand selfish basturds who couldn't give a damn about the others the work with but what do these scabs do when their children grow up and start asking questions. How do you sit down with a 22 year old son, look him in the eye and say "Yes son I was a scab and I want you to be just like me".

well it looks like the !!!!! hit the fan tonight in CBR. No E&I cover for the 738 and it came in with an fmc fail. Grounded:) Then anouther 800 came in with a dead FCU. With one lame on the fcu then there were only two lames left to run the tarmac, so you can only guess what happened. Yep! mass delays you little ripper. Cop that Mr D. So two A/C up against the fence and heaps of delays there, how can they say this industrial action is not affecting QF. Bullsh#t!!!! All I can say now, is bring it on....:cool:

The thing that amazes me the most about these people is that they pretend that they are looking after #1 but all they are doing by not sticking with the rest of the boys is reducing their conditions in the long run. It is the most senseless action around.
And How The **** do they think they got the major conditions that they enjoy now ...like long service leave etc.
No. Our predecesors put in the hard yards and stuck together and fought for our rights. these slimy people cant even stand up for themselves.

He would have had some excellent mentors in the pilot ranks, during his time with Ansett.
It's surprising how only these people have families to take care of - or so THEY'LL tell you!

who is this person - he should be named/shamed.

No he will not be named. If there are any names this thread will be removed!

:mad:

Woomera

to the person in DRW.... how can you look your fellow LAMEs in the eye and your family and say--- when the LAMEs fought hard and stuck together to achieve a satisfactory EBA out come ... I was in DRW stabbing them in the BACK...

He is happy to go there and others were going in fact if he didnt. Its nothing any decent lame wouldnt do anyway. Go read the notices idiots overtime is baned not releif work so leave the bloke alone hes just doing the right thing. Just cause we have bans doesnt mean you dont take care of the airline if you just delay the aircraft the passengers will go elsewhere. Have a think about it fools and by the way I havnt been sacked.

Glad the resident village idiot is still around. You obviously have absorbed the FUD (fear uncertainty and doubt) provided by QF management really deeply. In other words, you really believe that the "passengers will go away" (and take your job with them) if LAME's do not accept 3% and roll over and do whatever is required of them, despite the fact that QF has an iron grip on airline capacity into and throughout Australia.


There is only one way that the passengers "really" will go away.

And that is when an overstressed LAME, makes a maintenance error.

MR QANTAS you really are showing yourself as a fool,what are you going to do, come the end of the week when higher duties comes into play,nothing i would say as steam clean should operate business as usual.TWIT

Is it really going to happen or will the asn chicken out?

Can't wait if it does go ahead. What happens if the DMM goes off sick? The place will fall over.

Although I'm Cabin crew I have been reading your site with great interest, I agree 100% about these people, how can they sleep at night, to me its one of the lowest acts one can do to another human being.
look at what happened to us during the last EBA, they trained hundereds of people, sadly most of them came from within QANTAS, at one stage they were going into their managers office and were upset that they had not being asked to participate against us.
Make life miserable for these C***TS.

Whilst I understand the passion this thread may evoke, this forum has rules to which all agree when they register.

No one will be named, no matter how subtly or obliquely.

Long experience indicated use of that "S" word should not be permitted.

Whilst Woomera have edited certain posts, the thread is not being censored - unlike allegations against your association web site.

Transgress the rules and your access to this thread will be restricted.

Sorry bout that woomera will cease to name names in future

Heard from a good source that syd domestic line in trouble.With no DMM on crew 1 the shipo is rudderless

sorry about that woomera---- can we use low life C:mad: T instead


Mr mustang ranch will be enjoying a short break whilst he writes out long hand 100 times "I must not piss of the Woomeri nor use abusive language.":mad:

I would suggest that " the mustang ranch" is deliberately trying to push you to removing this thread, for reasons obvious to the rest of us. Those of us that respect free speech also respect the parameters we must comply with, and if anything should be deleted then set the horses free.
